Hello,

I will be applying this coming fall 08 and I was wondering if you could give me an assessment of my chances at the following schools;

Columbia (Early Decision), Kellogg, Chicago, MIT, Wharton, NYU, UCLA, Haas, Marshall

Profile:
Caucasian male (Armenian background) 25 years old when I start my applications.

Academics:
3.6 GPA, Cal State school, double major B.S in Electrical Engineering and B.S. Computer Engineering
3.8 GPA, USC M.S. Electrical Engineering
760 GMAT (48 Q, 47 V, 6.0 AWA)

Work:
4 yrs WE (by matriculation) at IBM working in designing cutting edge gaming microprocessor for the Nintendo Wii, Xbox 360, and PS3. I worked in a team-oriented environment under high stress deadlines. Through self-study, I become the local expert for several design tools. I also managed to disclose several technical patents.

Extracurriculars:
Volunteering 2 years as an IRS certified income tax assistant at VITA. We provided assistance to low-income, elderly, disabled and limited English speaking people.
Volunteered at local schools, promoting interest in Science and Engineering through several camps (EXCITE, IGNITE, etc.)

Goal:
I would like to go into either corporate strategy management (possibly returning back in Tech) or M&A. I know that Kellogg, and Wharton have sold management programs.

I would appreciate any insight. Am I aiming too high? Are there other schools you would suggest? Thanks again
